the skinhead of this particular joint is nowhere near as dangerous as that one. it's a friendly giant every day with the possible exception of weekends he saves human lives. his name is isaac the giant power strat. and i like his brothers and sisters he was born with a passion for travel. isaac's birthplace was a special training center in tanzania. it's

called which stands for development of landmine detection equipment that's what isaac is. mine sniffing rat. everywhere their social circumstances. with humanity. they actually traditionally. mind. to work in former hotspots where learned mines are among the most deadly remnants of conflict they're often found years after war has ended and serious injury isn't the only problem. imagine how it must feel to live with the knowledge that there's a landmine lurking somewhere near your home. when i was a close up field and to help make the problem of landmines a thing of the past. but it will be

a full nine months before he becomes a real pro for now he simply spends his time with his family. it's no coincidence that giant rats were chosen to sniff mines in the wild they're extraordinary sense of smell them to search for food buried deep underground it works with. the key is to train the a rats to associate the discovery of t.n.t. with food and that's not difficult because everyone knows how intelligent rats. the really hard part is making sure that the rat doesn't make any mistakes that could be fatal and not just for the rat. it's these old regular rats there it's clear from the way they eat these giant rats have special pouches in their cheeks to stole food just like hamsters so this particular animal is on the cusp between being a rat in a house this perhaps that's why they're just

a little bit cuter. it's. i guess i should add to another really great benefit of our species of rats is that they're really curious which lab rats are curious as well but they are various social in terms of they're really willing to work with people. sometimes will develop that relationship with you but i don't think they develop it quite as readily. meanwhile isaac has grown he's now four weeks old i'm training can begin like all children isaac schooling starts with a kindergarten. although it is a camera he helps a little rats to feel comfortable around people.

to see the defeat. to be. the norm we teach the. truth. interacting with the care is of vital part of the learning process it's important for isaac socializing. mind sniffing rats mustn't run away from people. when he grows up our eyes are cool way around a kilo and his body will reach thirty to forty centimeters in length just about as long as his tail. because they're so big grilled. is our favorite local street food.

started at school he spends his early weeks learning the basic rule that he means food. is used to reinforce the learned response. i can count as an empty container because no so. this one does contain t.n.t. and the click tells him that he can claim a treat. well in general but how. they really let her do her thing they don't get involved or train influenced her in any way but their adds to the rats as a different behavior just before they find. they have certain behavior some of them like to clean themselves elected groom

themselves they're very clean. they don't like to get wet or maybe there's. some of them will walk around in circles some even stand up in the air. so they have no said she's found some think she just has. indicated where. a rats remarkable sense of smell can detect the tiniest traces of t.n.t. . they can sense their. explosive even when it's fifteen to twenty centimeters underground their nose is not so secret weapon imagine if humans had similar abilities ok if you were in a pitch black room and somebody entered the house from. i would say i think one kilometer away and it's pitch black and you can't hear anything you might be able to detect something changed but that's also

very hard for me to say because i really as a scientist i need evidence to support such a claim and i don't have. isaac and his sister at the gym they can give their paws a good workout sharpen their teeth. and enjoy a sense of freedom. looks as though isaac's trying to set out on his first trip. nice troy. a brief chase. a few a breath so fresh. and he soon back in the fold.

they know what they are doing they know what to be expect from. barry no doubt if to. do very we want. to reward. powerful for. very very very bored he learned most you have to be bored. don't they don't understand this so i remember very well the words oh. that's what we are doing. for about a. week these students are only fed the food given the streaks during training. and.

during the weekend. given a veritable feat. of peanuts and dried fish this. is great for their bones. it's no feast. he. says here. in the wild. underground. quite independent

within the colony. live in their own. food with neighbors. females can choose their own. group that works a little like a parliament with both male and female members. it's a big day for isaac. is about to move into high school. just like every graduate to be he gets his own personal transport. now. his field training.

they sleep by day but have active night lives. try to adjust to the rats. they said five thirty in the morning field training session six. minutes for moments like this that isaac has been trained. by the sound of the engine.

the. wrong. to shape our. equals betrayal. she

still looks for common ground the one. well nobody got a lot of muscle in the. islamic states claims it was behind the manchester terror attack by the dash to the north front so till the priest every time a terrorist attack happens all these people are out there screaming i says so bad someone needs to do something against them and for me it was like yeah why don't we move in something. that. is the. result as long. as i have a case of. legality. check if these chinese hafiz whom hope you sound good is going to get caught on this girl who kill innocent let me

show you a movie on. my conclusion use. the meat to train to drink. again. and now you've learned get the only. reason train come quick. do white man. damn. the black you have to do does it does and

does. he have to. do is material enough for. he'll be used to three the young. isaac remains calm while using for his class to start. the trust between trainer and rat runs deep. he lets isaac out of the cage. without even bothering to follow. they have to concentrate them to be a viewer of their day they have to do

a make an interpretation of for the route is doing it and you come to d.c. when you are telling about your adventures during. isaac is now demonstrating model behavior for my non-thinking rat. he sniffs diligently at the end. is in no hurry. this is the result of several months of training. on our. it looks as though isaac might have found some t.n.t. . he tries to rid his nose of all extraneous sent.

me thinks he senses something but may just to reset his smelling operators to be sure. this is the spot. no. can send his signal. it's like watching two old friends getting together. at first but for me. i mean she was not running she was walking. she sniffed every room. she. has. to leave to t.n.t.

. it's asserted that she wasn't. t.n.t. . seems to have passed with flying colors. no it's time to evaluate his loyalty. no one wants to chase or run away red across a life minefield that would be deadly that's why it's important that the rats follow their house voluntarily without a leash. isaac is displaying textbook behavior as his training is over. now it's time for the real world to begin.

traveling to see rip in cambodia. this is home to one of the ancient aka textural wonders of the world. and caught a fast. millions of tourists travel here to take their best selfies tourism is one of cambodia's main sources of revenue. but there are still landmines left over from the civil war and they are seriously hampering any further growth and

tourism to say nothing of the danger to life. when it comes to square miles of minefields cambodia is second only to afghanistan . the number of injuries caused by land mines is the highest in the world now though the situation is changing for the better in the popular tourist resorts mines can only be seen in museums but there are still many dangerous areas in the country. isaac is here to help with mine clearance. new instructor applies some screen to his skin. because giant rats and nocturnal creatures their skin isn't accustomed to high levels of u.v.

. if they were left unprotected they'd run the risk of developing skin cancer. ears and tails of the most delicate spots. we didn't see them doing this in africa because the training center was high in the mountains in the town of moore to go to. but this time of year it's much cooler there than here in cambodia . if we take a closer look at the troubles it's raining but isaac still has some screen applied . the sun might come out once the team stops working. this is no drill. between domes protective vests and helmets.

no one knows exactly health protection they get would offer but fun until they're off to work. it's not a hundred. but it's hard when the next question is not that but these are. you. know. if something exploded. in the not being is going down if something explored at least to a court that they don't want an office rather than having nothing. just as we make our way to the mine field it rains again. if we do rains and then. we think that there is no question i think thinking is going on is not easy.

that's why when the rains a lot then we don't know what. it doesn't look as though we'll get to see isaac in action range getting heavier. see. see feel. pretty good. a pretty good one. through. our. one more try. it's not clear if the rain will get in the way again or not.

the mind to take some team is out in the field after all. isaac is investigating the ground. nothing so far. suddenly he starts to wash his face. this means he's identified a suspicious scent. the disposal expert approaches. he has from something.

he seems to be really quite relaxed so perhaps it's not a mine off to rule. is the mind that's not mine it's. made in china. i thought. my. mom didn't get. it. all finds a carefully looked on the. cleared

areas highlighted in yellow. the disposal team has a light breakfast to work everyone gets a banana. and they all seem to enjoy it. as a way for this moment of triumph now it's time for a rest. real heroes glory true heroes need to rest to build up their strength for their future and. another round of cambodia's mine clearance campaign has come to an end the field engineers have a chance to relax and take a leaf out of the judge's book then night life is almost as exciting as the rats.

in. this story of a land mine and. that's all there is to it. it's.

prescribe medication is widespread on the u.s. market and a frequent cause of death. like everything was ashes my family was literally coming unglued i had actually planned. to commit some site water or who has made antidepressants so commonly used we were doing what the

doctors told us to do we were being responsible and what the real side effects. was. when i did was on a cocktail of legal drugs. just because something's legal doesn't mean it's saying. well you know the hard thing we've kind of adopted because we were. there in the small ball. sniffs it hard push ups and it's scary. the little self to big fish already ninety percent of the dot and it won't be calmer. concept fifteen's

seventy five tons they do it several times a day with a big fleet so no you get an idea on why. we have to understand we can all still use to just. be with them this will be used the old boy you are. doing this because i want them for the future. generations to have and enjoy the ocean we have.
